In the 2023 NBA Draft, the San Antonio Spurs selected Victor Wembanyama as their top pick. He was hailed as the future star of the league, and the Spurs are projected to dominate with this French sensation leading the way. Being chosen as the number one pick comes with its own perks, including numerous endorsement deals. Wembanyama is undoubtedly reaping the benefits of this as well. According to analyst Nick DePaula on NBACentral, Wembanyama has been named a brand ambassador for the renowned fashion label, Louis Vuitton. It’s no surprise that Wembanyama, being a French brand, was chosen as one of their ambassadors. Despite being in his rookie year, he is already one of the most popular basketball players globally. This popularity guarantees him multiple lucrative endorsement deals as he progresses in his NBA career. Speaking of his performance, Wembanyama has played 49 games for the Spurs this season, averaging an impressive 20.5 points, 10.0 rebounds, and 3.2 assists per game. He is having a remarkable individual season and is the frontrunner for the NBA Rookie of the Year award. However, the Spurs are currently at the bottom of the Western Conference standings with an 11-44 record.
